On: Spam in Your Calendar? Here’s What to Do

[PhantomGremlin]

I was hoping this would be about gettinng rid of events such as "Ashura" in my iPhone calendar. Doubtlessly that day is important to a lot of people. But I would prefer to simply have the US legal holidays, without all the other stuff.

Apple are being real dicks about the all-or-nothing nature of these events. Why can't we have some granularity as to the holidays we see in our Calendar?

Opposing customization in favor of a common consistent curated experience based on Apple’s superior knowledge (especially compared to customers themselves) of what customers want has been the Apple way for a long time.
